Southern Morbihan Tourisme
6km up the river lies the tiny island of Saint Cado, reached by a stone foot-bridge. Called the pearl of
the river, it’s home to a chapel, a fountain and its Cross and is well worth a visit.
10km along the coast you come to Port Louis & its amazing view over the entry to the Port of Lorient.
The national martime museum and the Indian trading Company museum is within the Vauban
citadelle.
20km away is Carnac & its classified site : the megalithic fields with the lines of stones, the Prehistoric
Museum, the St Cornelly church & 6 chapels which border the site.
The local town of Auray, also 20km away, is charming with delightful shops along paved streets, with
its castle walls leading down to the river harbour of Saint Goustan, nestling in the Golfe du Morbihan.
The county’s main town, Vannes, is also the main harbour of the Golfe du Morbihan (a true inland
sea). This historic town has much to offer & captures the ever changing moods of sea, sky & land.
